Hi, I need help with my TUF F17 (FX706HEB). Recently, while gaming, after a few minutes (in games like Wukong and Tsushima), I experience a significant FPS drop to the point where the game becomes unplayable and even the in-game audio starts to stutter. The laptop gets extremely hot.

I have already cleaned the fans and replaced the thermal paste on both the CPU and GPU, but the issue is still the same. I should add that this started suddenly, as I was able to play these same games before without any issues.

Do you have any idea what could be causing this problem or what I should check? Thanks in advance for any suggestions!
